Life's Travels

A Pilgrim's Way

I have a tenuous grasp upon the world.

Reality moves like a flowing stream,

And if I cling too tightly to things

I might be hindered or swept aside.

I have a tenuous claim to the mountain side,

For the Dragon moves like a flowing stream.

I may fight him and be overcome,

Or ride his back from the  heavens to the sea.

I have a tenuous hold upon life,

For God moves like a flowing stream.

I can only do what I know for today

And be ready to travel tomorrow.
